14:25:44 anne - it's an extensibility marker, Rich is getting to that.

14:31:11 RS: 1. do we bring xhtml role attribute into HTML 5?
14:31:54 ... 2. have an aria attribute, e.g. ...
14:32:01
14:32:20
@aria for roles, @aria-props for states/properties?
14:32:31 myakura, yes
14:33:28 ACTION Mike: integrate the offline notes into the record
14:33:37 PF group wants XHTML Role module
14:33:56 The reason for using aria= is that it's consistent with the properties and that role= is already overloaded as general accessibility mechanism
14:34:08 Rich: role is widely used.
14:34:08 A transition path from role= to aria= is pretty trivial
14:34:33 XHTML Role module makes ARIA possible -- it is an extension built in accordance with the Role Module's extensibility mechanism
14:35:06 Rich: we don't think role is just for accessibility - we think it's a general semantic declaration
14:35:09 q+
14:35:21 rich++
14:35:26 thanks, Mike
14:35:31 er, MikeSmith
14:35:53 Danc_lap: who's maintaining the test suite
14:36:00 [Joshue O'Connor is taking good notes and will e-mail them to me after the session]
14:36:58 http://simon.html5.org/test/aria/ has tests for the http://simon.html5.org/specs/aria-proposal proposal
14:37:34 (ah... this is familiar)-

14:38:35 action: MichaelC to discuss with PFWG role attribute vs aria attribute
14:38:35 Sorry, couldn't find user - MichaelC
14:40:05 Present+ Maciej
14:40:08 anne: I would think aria (vs role) would restrict the types to just widgets (or things that make sense for accessibility)
14:40:52 mjs has joined #html-wg
14:40:55 I gather Aaron Leventhal and Jon Gunderson do most of the test maintenance
14:41:06 Rich: middleware is using the role attrib for device adaptation
14:41:24 1. Consistency with aria-. 2. No clashing with XHTML2
14:41:33 are my arguments for aria=
14:41:34 chaals has joined #html-wg
14:41:34 rich: if I have to deal with an aria attribute now, that doesn't make a lot of sense.
14:41:54 danC, there is a table of supported roles at http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/ARIA:_Accessible_Rich_Internet_Applications#Landmark_Roles_from_XHTML_role_attribute_module

14:42:16 anne, what's the clash? I think if we point to the XHTML Role attribute, it's defined the same?

14:55:39 Hsivonen points out that XML Schema doesn't provide semantics, it provides a pattern to validate against
14:56:41 q?
